OPINION
PER CURIAM:
The Appellants, Zedrick Henson, Robert McCormick, Jr., and
Nigel Marine, challenge their convictions and sentences, pursuant to
their guilty pleas, to aiding and abetting, and possession with intent
to distribute in excess of 500 grams or more of cocaine base, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 2 (1994), 21 U.S.C.A. 841(a)(1) (West 1999 &
Supp. 2002). Henson was sentenced to 235 months incarceration and
four years supervised release. McCormick was sentenced to 168
months incarceration and four years supervised release. Marine was
sentenced to 70 months incarceration and four years supervised
release.
On appeal, the Appellants argue the district court erred in denying
their motions to suppress evidence obtained from a search of a residence in Baltimore, Maryland. We review a district courts legal conclusions on a suppression motion de novo, and the courts underlying

UNITED STATES v. HENSON

factual determinations for clear error. United States v. Seidman, 156


F.3d 542, 547 (4th Cir. 1998). The Appellants challenge is meritless;
the district court did not err in concluding the search warrant application, viewed under the appropriate standard, established probable
cause to issue a search warrant for the residence. Murray v. United
States, 487 U.S. 533, 542 (1988); United States v. Walton, 56 F.3d
551, 554-56 (4th Cir. 1995).
Accordingly, we affirm the district courts denial of the Appellants
suppression motions, and we affirm the Appellants convictions and
sentences. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.
